Review from David L (Husband of Resident) published on 7 February 2022 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
My wife was moved to Woodland Park when her retirement home could no longer cope, as her health deteriorated and she needed nursing care. I was worried that she may be adversely affected by the change but I had no need to worry, she was welcomed by the staff and felt at home very quickly, with no problems. My wife could be difficult but the staff coped with her, and she always seemed to be happy there. Whenever I went to visit or phoned, the staff always knew how she was and her current mood. All the staff I met cared deeply for their residents and I have no reservations in recommending Woodland Park to anybody that needs nursing care. A lovely setting with wonderful staff.

Review from Robert D (Son of Resident) published on 20 February 2018 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
Woodlands Park Nursing Home is such a wonderful place.
The staff were extremely caring and thoughtful. The staff were very hard working, there was nothing that was too much trouble whilst they were caring for my dad in his final days. They are very special people and a brilliant team who went above their regular duties and treated my Dad with care and dignity. Thank you to all of you at Woodland Park I can not recommend this place highly enough.

Review from James K (Son of Resident) published on 2 December 2016 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
The staff at Woodlands Park Nursing Home acted above and beyond the call of duty in the care of my mum; and as a daily visitor, my dad. They are special people whose devotion to their patients extends far beyond their regular duties. I have to single out two carers who feel like part of our family after 3.5 years.
